Project description:Phenotypic plasticity, the ability of one genotype to express different phenotypes in response to changing environmental conditions, is one of the most common phenomena characterising the living world and is not only relevant for the ecology but also for the evolution of species. Daphnia, the waterflea, is a textbook example for predator induced phenotypic plastic defences including changes in life-history, behaviour and morphology. However, the analysis of molecular mechanisms underlying these inducible defences is still in its early stages.<br><br>We exposed Daphnia magna to chemical cues of the predator Triops cancriformis to identify key processes underlying plastic defensive trait formation. D. magna is known to develop an array of morphological changes in the presence of T. cancriformis including changes of carapace morphology and cuticle hardening. To get a more comprehensive idea of this phenomenon, we studied four different genotypes originating from habitats with different predation history, reaching from predator-free to temporary habitats containing T. cancriformis.<br><br>We analysed the morphologies as well as proteomes of predator-exposed and control animals. Three genotypes showed morphological changes when the predator was present. Using a high-throughput proteomics approach, we found 294 proteins which were significantly altered in their abundance after predator exposure in a general or genotype dependant manner. Proteins connected to genotype dependant responses were related to the cuticle, protein synthesis and calcium binding whereas the yolk protein vitellogenin increased in abundance in all genotypes, indicating their involvement in a more general response. Furthermore, genotype dependant responses at the proteome level correlated well with local adaptation to Triops predation.<br><br>Altogether, our study provides new insights concerning genotype dependant and general molecular processes involved in predator-induced phenotypic plasticity in D. magna.

Project description:We integrated metabolome and proteome profiles of the parental cell line 143B.TK- versus ρ0, including PTM analyses such as phosphorylation and ubiquitination to characterize the impact of the absence of mtDNA for the entire cell. For quantitative proteome profiling, we used a shotgun LC-MS/MS approach including the classical SILAC labeling. For comprehensive metabolome profiling, we applied a targeted LC-MS approach, based on multiple reaction monitoring (MRM).</br></br>Our study revealed that mtDNA depletion leads to a non-uniform down-regulation of the mitochondrial energy metabolism in ρ0 cells on the proteome level. Metabolites of the TCA cycle were highly dysregulated which in turn had an impact on the amino acid levels, which were up regulated. Perturbation of the mitochondrial energy metabolism could lead to an activation of the retrograde response, indicated by sets of up-regulated signaling pathways in ρ0 cells, further supported by altered phosphorylation in signaling pathways and the cytoskeleton as well as de-ubiquitination of SLC transporters.

Project description:We considered the possibility that removal of E2F4, as a key regulator of cellular quiescence, would cause systemic perturbations in the expression of E2F4 bound genes involved in cell cycle and proliferation. To test whether these pertubrations were reflected in the adult tissues' gene expression programs, we compared the gene expression profile of E2F4 double knockout mice to the gene expression found in identical tissues from E2F4 heterozygous littermates, that are phenotypically normal. We selected liver, testes, and kidney to profile by gene expression analysis, because two of these tissues are affected at some point during development when E2F4 is missing.

Project description:Proteins have been extracted from kidney calculi with SDS buffer. Proteins were seperated by 1D-SDS-PAGE and stained with coomassie. Each gel lane was cut into 5 (or 6) pieces. Proteins were digested in gel with trypsin. Tryptic peptides were analysed by nanoLC-MS/MS on an ion trap instrument (6340 Ion Trap, Agilent) with CID. Peak lists were generated with Mascot Distiller, and database searching was performed with Mascot. The data from 5 (or 6) LC-MS/MS runs from one patient ware merged into one mgf file, which was searched against IPI (human) database.

Project description:The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is essential for replication of Orthopoxviruses (OPV) like vaccinia and cowpox virus (CPXV). Although several proteome studies identified ubiquitin as part of OPV particles, distinct modification sites are largely unknown. Moreover, the UPS plays a key role in poxvirus core uncoating but the underlying mechanisms are still elusive. In the presented study we show that impairment of CPXV replication by proteasome inhibition is caused by a lack of uncoating which can be observed by electron microscopy. These results suggest, that UPS-dependent degradation of viral core proteins is the mechanism underlying CPXV genome uncoating. To proof this hypothesis we analyzed the mature virion ubiquitinome of CPXV using mass spectrometry (MS). We elucidated 137 conserved ubiquitination sites in 54 viral proteins among five CPXV strains verifying ubiquitin is a major poxvirus modification. Structural core proteins were massively ubiquitinated and virions contained large amounts of K48-linked polyubiquitin supporting the hypothesis. Hence, we aimed to show the proteasome-dependent degradation of CPXV core proteins in infected HeLa cells. However, using MS-based quantitative analysis of ubiquitinated virus proteins early in infection we were not able to show the degradation of viral core proteins. Instead, our results revealed the proteasomal degradation of viral proteins associated with the formation of prereplication sites early in infection.

Project description:We applied a non targeted mass spectrometric assay (LCMSE), to quantify 55 abundant plasma proteins in specimens from 31 healthy volunteers. Quantitation was done by HI3 peptide measurement using a single internal standard to estimate protein concentrations. Results for 7 apolipoproteins were compared with those obtained using isotope labelled standards, while 12 proteins were compared to routine immunoassays. Blood samples were obtained from 31 healthy volunteers (17 males; 14 females) with a median age of 46 years and a range of 22-67 years. Total plasma protein concentration was assayed with a BCA-assay (20) according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Thermo). Samples were diluted tenfold in 0.1% Rapigest SF (Waters Corporation, Milford, MA), 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate and heated at 95° C for 15 min. Subsequently, plasma samples were reduced with 5 mM dithiothreitol (60° C, 30 min) and alkylated with 15 mM iodoacetamide (ambient temperature, dark, 30 min). Proteolytic digestion was performed with modified trypsin (gold grade, Promega, Madison WI) at 0.3 units/µg protein, (37° C, 20 hours) unless indicated otherwise. Following digestion, Rapigest SF was broken down by adding 1% trifluoroacetic acid (pH<2, 37 °C, 45 min). Peptide solutions were centrifuged (20,000 x g, 10 min) and supernatant was collected. Prior to analyses a MASSPREP protein digestion standard (Waters Corporation, ADH1 or ENO from Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was added for quantitation purposes. LC-MS analyses were performed using ~ 0.21 µg of the final plasma protein digest mixtures (384 times total dilution) unless indicated otherwise. LC separations of tryptic peptides were performed with a NanoAcquity system (Waters Corporation), coupled to a Synapt G2 quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometer (Waters Corporation, Manchester, UK). Accurate mass precursor and fragment ion LC-MS data were collected in data independent LCMSE mode of acquisition. Continuum LC-MS data were processed using ProteinLynx GlobalSERVER version 2.5 (PLGS 2.5, Waters Corporation). Parameter settings: digest reagent trypsin, allow 1 ‘missed cleavage’, search tolerances automatic, typically 5 ppm for precursor and 15 ppm for product ions, fixed modification cysteine carbamidomethylation, and variable modification methionine oxidation. Protein identifications were obtained searching the human SwissProt entries of an UniProt database (release 13.2). This database was modified to include N-terminal processing of proteins using protein maturation device software, with ADH1 and ENO1 of S. cerevisiae appended as internal standard to address technical variation and allow concentration determinations. Estimation of false-positive identification rates was done by searching a randomized version of the abovementioned human protein database generated within PLGS 2.5. Data were exported as csv-files for further, detailed analysis. Stringent criteria were applied for quantitation, protein identifications were only considered significant if reported in 14 or more samples. Protein false positive identification rates were estimated using the criteria mentioned above and no false positives were identified in these searches.
